CHALLENGE + IMPACT

Constantly changing markets demand flexibility

An inflexible architecture impedes your ability to react quickly and leads to lost revenue. Flexible applications let developers efficiently adapt to new user requirements and changing environments.

Can't respond quickly to user feedback

When you’re late to market with new apps or new updates, you lose customers to faster-moving competitors

Lost revenue from poor functionality

If your app can’t deliver the functionality you and your users want, you can’t capitalize on it

Increased application infrastructure costs

When you constantly have to find new solutions to meet new requirements, your costs keep adding up

Rigid database schemas limit flexibility and functionality

To keep users on your app, you need to deliver a great experience that includes a lot of data-driven features and easily evolves for personalization, product catalogs, and inventory information.

  • Fixed schemas are more labor-intensive for developers
  • Single model databases limit features and functionality
  • Schema changes can lead to downtime
